Went to see Chronixx live in Amsterdam the other day for the opening night of his current European tour with Kelissa and Dre Island and man, he sure lived up to my very high expectations. I highly rate the young man's music and approach to it and was very curious if he could impress as much on stage. And yes he can, tight band (Zinc Fence), excellent stage presence and wicked setlist. Had some trouble with his voice due to the flight, but it didn't bother me one bit. Dre Island has a very nice set too. Nice detail was that Chronixx and Dre Island were doing backing vocals for Kelissa and Chronixx and Kelissa for Dre Island: really a joined tour.

For me, its here comes trouble and Odd Rass - i think there's another thread on that.

Nice one, BMC, would love to catch him live but unfortunately his European tour does not reach the UK. What a sad state of affairs. I don't think it s Visa issues because he is on the line-up for the Boomtown Festival and was in London last year for little -publicised (meaning I never heard about it until after it happened ) gig in Kings Cross.

Oh well, Alborosie's coming to Brixton on Thursday, looking forward to that one!

Rico, no they sadly didn't have vinyl copies of Dread & Terrible yet. The guy of the merch told me they expected those in three weeks time (so about two weeks from now). Too bad, since I really hoped to grap a copy at the show.

Quite amazing that he just released his first official EP (Dread & Terrible), but already has over 50 tunes out there that I'm aware of (of which about 12 on 45s). Obviously not all evenly good, but overall quality to me is pretty high.

ye i think chronixx has a big career ahead of him hes still really new on the scene and i think his songwriting will improve with time (hes still a young lad) gna catch him at outlook festival this summer in croatia!

Doing his country and it's music proud, this youth has one bright future ahead of him. Carrying the torch for the new generation, authentic music, evidently has a strong management team behind him. Looking forward to catching him live in Manchester at the end of next month. Thanks for the link BMC.
